The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth

After both sides calmed down...

"Tell me, why did you fight?" He pulled up a chair and sat down, secretly shaking his hand; damn, it really hurt.

Song had been watching her closely. When he saw her movements, his eyes darkened, and he stepped forward to grab her hand. It was red and purplish, swollen like a pig's trotter.

"What happened to the hand?"

"It got caught in the door." She was also startled; it was so swollen and looked quite frightening.

Fang Youcai, who was sitting on the ground, quietly moved back a little. It had nothing to do with him; she insisted on coming into the house. She knew he was going to close the door, but she still reached out. He really didn't mean it.

"You silly child, why didn't you say you were injured like this? Go see a doctor first, hurry up!" Zhao said anxiously, looking at her hand.

"No rush, it's just a superficial injury. You two should deal with this first." She could tell that no bones were broken, and if this wasn't resolved, it would cause more trouble later.

"Let's go see a doctor first!"

"Solve the problem first!"

Zhao: ...Who did he take after to get this temper?

Unable to persuade her otherwise, Song Feng went out and brought her a basin of water to apply a cold compress.

"Make it quick, what's up?"

Fang Tiezhu also climbed over the wall and entered the house, where a crowd had gathered at the entrance.

The two stood at the doorway.

“He stole all my silver, not a single penny was left, he took it all,” Zhao said, her eyes red.

When she found out, she felt like the sky had fallen. He had squandered all the money the Wang family had given to compensate their daughter, and now he was stealing hers. What kind of money was this? She was saving it to repair her house.

Fang Xiaoning was also furious. Stealing is one thing, but stealing everything without leaving a single penny is truly despicable.

"Yes, I did take the money. Why do you have money? Why do you have time to work at the Song family's house? It's because the three of us do all the work in the fields, so I got a share of the money."

"Xiao Ning, Dad works like a dog every day. Look at me, look at me, I'm skin and bones. What's wrong with wanting to eat something better?"

"Where's the silver from the Wang family?" It was quite a lot; surely it couldn't have been spent so quickly? It hasn't been that long.

Fang Youcai dared not look at her; after all, that was her money.

"Finished!"

"What did you eat? How much silver did you lose?" Fang Xiaoning didn't believe him; this guy was just trying to fool her again.

"Roast chicken, pig's trotters, meat, wine, and I also bought a few pounds of pastries."

"You don't need that much silver, do you think she doesn't know the prices? He'll eat it all; he's not afraid of stuffing himself to death."

Zhao pointed at Fang Youcai with exasperation, "He just finished eating, Xiao Ning. You have no idea how much he loves to eat. Several times, he woke me up at night to hear the sound of him gnawing on bones. I thought there were rats in the house."

He can eat three or four roast chickens, five pig trotters, and a pound of liquor a day. If he eats like that every day, who can afford to eat like that?

I told him, "Give me some money, I'll keep it safe," but he absolutely refused. He eats, but he eats all by himself, not even sharing a bite with the children. Have you ever seen someone steal food during the day, steal food at night, and even get up in the middle of the night to steal food? Looking at him, I feel ashamed! And yet, he still eats just as much as he should at home.

Dog Egg and Iron Pillar: ...Dad, you ate so many good things behind their backs! That's too much!

Fang Xiaoning was stunned. She knew that the original owner's father was lazy and greedy, but this was too exaggerated! He wanted to eat in the middle of the night? How many meals did he eat a day? She had never seen a grown man so greedy.

Song Feng looked at his father-in-law with mixed feelings, thinking, "He's really too unreliable."

Fang Youcai didn't think he was wrong. "That little bit of money was all gone long ago, no, all gone from food. I just hadn't eaten meat in a long time and was craving it. I was also exhausted recently and wanted to replenish myself, so I bought a roast chicken. When your mother saw me eating the chicken, she started fighting with me! She even said the money was hers! Is there such a person? Ask around in the village, which wife treats her husband like that? I'm the head of the household, so what if I'm in charge of the money?"

Zhao really wanted to beat this shameless man to death. Over the years, he had squandered all the family's wealth. Wasn't that enough? Wasn't that enough?

Fang Xiaoning glared at him, and Fang Youcai shut up.

She really had a headache and her hands hurt; what a terrible thing this was.

"Give the rest of the silver back to Mother."

"No, I'll give her half of what I have." Fang Youcai clutched his chest, still refusing to let Zhao succeed despite being scratched so badly.

"Song Feng, where's my knife?" Teng stood up abruptly.

Fang Youcai immediately pulled out some silver, "It's all here, take it all, take it all! Just watch me die!" As he spoke, his eyes reddened, feeling sorry for himself.

He has suffered so much, and it has been so difficult for him!

"Dad, how about this? Mom has been helping out at my house. You can keep an eye on things at home, including the work in the fields."

"I can't do it. Even if you cut me, I still can't do it."

“For the autumn harvest, I’ll find someone to work with you, along with Tiezhu and Gou Dan. How about that? It’s like Mom is working in the fields too, and they’re even more capable than Mom.”

Fang Youcai rolled his eyes. "I don't have any energy if I don't eat well."

Zhao felt her anger rising again, and she really wanted to drag him down with her.

"Here's what we'll do. I'll give you 200 coins a month to buy food. But you have to promise to behave yourself from now on, not cause trouble at home, and definitely not lay a hand on me." Paying for peace of mind, that's fine, I just like to eat.

"That's not enough. You know I have a good appetite. Give me 500 coins."

Song Feng felt a strange urge to laugh.
